The actor-comedian made this revelation after the release of his travel mini-series, A Spin Around Dubai
Jessi Lever, son of veteran actor and comedian Johnny Lever is gearing up for his first-ever film in which he shares screen space with his father. Ahead of this, he reminisced about the time he acted with Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan as a child actor.
OTTplay asked Jesse about his upcoming projects as his mini-series, A Spin Around Dubai along with his sister Jamie Lever, which released recently is receiving positive responses from the audience.
Sharing details about his upcoming projects, Jesse told OTTplay, "I have two movies in the pipeline that I have finished shooting for, and both of them are in the comedy genre. Actually, in one of them, we have still have to shoot a small part with my father. I am genuinely excited for that because I am working with a comedy legend like Johnny Lever, who is also my biggest critic and father."
Recalling his days as a child artist working with his father, Jesse said, "I worked with dad when I was young. Do you remember that young boy Ghasitaram from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, who told Hrithik Roshan the dialogue, 'Haldiram ka thoda khiska hua hai, wo log London shift ho gaya, bada ho kar ek din mein bhi jayunga"? That young boy was me!"
Now that he is all grown up and working as a professional, Jesse said that the upcoming film would be very special for him.
Asked to share more details of his work, he said, "The film with dad is a trilingual - in Hindi, Marathi and English. That apart, I have acted in a psychological thriller short film, which is a very different genre that I have explored. So, yes, two feature films and one short film is all I have right now to look forward to."
The mini-series A Spin Around Dubai is streaming on MX Player.
